Answer:

k = 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x^2 - 5x + k

dy/dx = 2x - 5 = the slope of the tangent to the curve

The slope of the normal = -1/(2x - 5)

The line  3y + x =25 is normal to the curve so finding its slope:

3y = 25 - x

y = -1/3 x + 25/3 <------- Slope is -1/3

So at the point of intersection with the curve, if the line is normal to the curve:

-1/3 = -1 / (2x - 5)

2x - 5 = 3  giving x = 4.

Substituting for x in y = x^2 - 5x + k:

When x = 4, y =  (4)^2 - 5*4 + k  

y = 16 - 20 + k

so y = k - 4.

From the equation y = -1/3 x + 25/3,  at x = 4

y = (-1/3)*4 + 25/3 = 21/3 = 7.

So y = k - 4 = 7

k = 7 + 4 = 11.

xenn [34]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Total amount to spend = $55

Amount of food and drinks purchased = $14.25

Amount put on gaming card = $(55 - 14.25) = $40.75

Cost per game = $1.25

Number of games (g) he can play

Number of games g:

Amount put on gaming card / cost per game

= $40.75 / $1.25

= 32.6 games

g ≤ 32

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval is written in the form, sample mean ± margin of error

The sample mean is an estimator for the population mean. The confidence level is used to express how confident we are that the population mean is within the calculated confidence interval. The lower limit of the given confidence interval is 2.619 hours/day while the upper limit of the confidence interval is 3.401 hours/day

Therefore, the INVALID interpretations of the 95% confidence interval are

A. About 95% of all Cal Poly students spend between 2.619 and 3.401 hours/day watching TV.

B. There is a 95% chance that, on average, Cal Poly students spend between 2.619 and 3.401 hours/day watching TV.

D. In the long run, 95% of the sample means will be between 2.619 and 3.401 hours.

E. None of the above.

If DE=4x+10, EF =2x-1, and DF=9x-15, find DF
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

If DE = 4x+10,EF =2X -1, and DF= 9x - 15 find DF

(de + ef ) - df = 2e || 2e/2 = e || ed - e = d || ef - e = f || f + d =  df

de + ef = 6x + 11 || (6x +11) - df = -3x -6 || 2e/2 = -3x/2 - 3  || (-3x/2 - 3) - de = x/2 + 7||  (- 3x/2 - 3) - ef = -x/2 - 1|| d + f = 6
